A Blessed Easter Monday

I hope it's not too late to wish each and everyone of you a Blessed Easter. I was away in Kuching since Saturday and just got back this evening. The weather in Kuching's like what it is in Miri. It rained the 2 nights I was there but sunny & hot during the daytime. The trip to Kuching was for D to have his injured eye di laserkan this morning. Appointment was slotted for 8.30am but the eye specialist only got to see him at 12.40 noon. It would be nice if Pak Lah could allocate a budget for another hospital to be built as a present for the people of Sarawak who 'stick' to him through thick and thin. You should see the traffic jam leading to the Sarawak General Hospital & the lack of parking spaces. ( I wonder who's the bloody idiot who suggested having a basketball court right in front of the entrance of the hospital where else it could be be used for parking cars....it's a court for various games,I gather). There were 'thousands' of sick people going for their various appointments.Most of them had to be dropped off near the gate of the hospital. It was pretty chaotic. It is HIGH TIME for another BIG hospital in Kuching. D had to be referred to SGH because Miri General Hospital,even though it has now a resident eye specialist,the hospital hasn't got a eye-laser machine for the eye-specialist to use. How pathetic can the Health ministry be!!
This time the trip to Kuchintg was really a time for bonding with D's other relatives as our usual makan guide,Ini Christopher's very sick because of a recent knee cap operation. Jimmy & I managed to persuade her to join us for breakfast at a nearby eating spot. After she finished her chicken rice,she asked to be sent back because she felt sleepy after countless of sleepless days & nights. I really certify that she is vey sick because she did not talk much and the volume of her 'radio' was only at one bar;it used to be full bars. Anyway, I wish her speedy recovery.
